Question

which of the following is an example of point-of-view editing?

○ a shot of a character looking offscreen and then a shot of that character walking toward something

○ a shot of a character looking offscreen and then a shot of another character also looking offscreen

○ a shot of a character looking offscreen and then a shot of that character from another angle

○ a shot of a character looking offscreen and then a shot, from his or her point of view, of what he or she is looking at

○ a shot of a character looking offscreen and then a shot of the exterior of the location where that character is positioned

Explanation:

Point-of-view editing directly shows what a character is seeing from their perspective, by cutting from a shot of the character looking offscreen to a shot framed as their viewpoint of the object/scene they are observing. The other options do not replicate the character's direct visual perspective.

Answer:

a shot of a character looking offscreen and then a shot, from his or her point of view, of what he or she is looking at
